This can be reproduced by hosting a mirror on S3. S3 has built in functionality that closes a connection after 100 requests. We were able to add comments to apt source that output every time a new connection was made and we confirmed every 100 requests that S3 did close the connection. Intermittently, we would get the Undetermined Error during one of the connection close events. Debug output confirmed there is a connection: close header. We also confirmed apt identified a 102 connection reset by peer event by printing the error.

So this isn't apache specific, I believe apache is just more prone to sending connection: close. Because of S3's behavior of closing connections every 100 requests, it became very noticeable to us.
